So we're being asked to design something respectable and produce the equivalent of set-design models for display and critique. It's not a unique experience as part of the larger design process, but it is kind of unique to design for an end result that's really only a facsimile. Kind of an esoteric and philosophical gateway. Enough of that though.
Part of the larger project and how (it is expected) we'll be thinking about the work, is to consider the community and their stories. As it is we are all removed from the community in geography cultural considerations. I don't think this is a hindrance or that we can't be effective because we aren't part of the story but it must be noted that we have somewhat limited resources to fully explore the community and gain their perspective. If anyone reading this has suggestions for how to get "in" with the locals... and for now I'll presume that you are locals, let us know how we can best work with you. Feel free to share your stories with us. Use this site to send us e-mail or leave comments about you. What you want, which bus stops are near your home. What do you like about the neighborhood. What would you like to change.
This isn't a forum for venting and your comments can certainly be kept confidential but we're open, and somewhat eager to hear from you.
